Praise for Robert Morgan:
At their finest, his stripped-down and almost primitive sentences burn with the raw, lonesome pathos of Hank Williams's best songs.
— The New York Times Book ReviewMorgan writes with an enviable clarity that makes personalities, issues and event come alive on the page.
— BookPageMorgan has contributed so much to the health of southern poetry over the last thirty-five years that the southerness of his work is axiomatic... [His] reputation is made, in no small part, on the strength of his ear, with which he has produced some of the most sonorous poems in the language.
